I was diagnosed with a kidney infection in August. Resistant to antibiotics they had given it was changed. That didnt help and I got a fever. I went to the hospital and was admitted into ICU in 30 minutes with the diagnosis of sepsis. I almost died and feel that I probably had the superbug but it was in early August before the news told us about the bug.
